Full Depth Heavy Duty (HD) Crossing

The OMNI Heavy Duty rubber grade crossing system is the most durable full-depth rubber crossing available. Made of 100 percent virgin rubber, the Heavy Duty system is designed to withstand repeated punishment of high-speed, heavy traffic loadings. This product’s durability, long life and low maintenance requirements make it ideal for most applications. Heavy Duty panels can be reused when a crossing is reconfigured or closed. Heavy Duty panels can be used with most rail fasteners.

Steel Reinforced (SR) Crossing

The Steel Reinforced grade crossing system includes a virgin rubber panel reinforced with a 1/4″ corrugated steel plate, installed on longitudinal, pressure-treated, hardwood shims.

The virgin rubber absorbs the impact of concentrated loads such as lift trucks, while the steel plate provides the strength to carry heavy loads. The Steel Reinforced system is ideal for low MGT, heavy truck use, such as intermodal yards and private industry. With the purchase of the Goodyear™ product line, OMNI is the only supplier of this type of product.

RailGuard™ VRA Crossing

OMNI Virgin Rubber RailGuard™ (VRA) is made from 100% virgin rubber. VRA protects the track structure by absorbing traffic impact loads, provides a positive flangeway which controls surface water runoff, and prevents breakup of the asphalt at the rail interface.

The VRA design has several benefits over other rail seal products. The panels are easy to handle and install. VRA’s greater surface area provides better cushioning to the rail and is self-supporting. The durability of 100 percent virgin rubber makes VRA ideal for any traffic situation. Either asphalt or concrete can be used in conjunction with VRA.

The RailGuard™ VRA panel is designed to accommodate heavy traffic when a rail seal has been specified rather than a full width rubber crossing. Examples would be road crossings, intermodal yards, docks and industrial parks.
